The Steelers appear committed to Edmunds in a three-down role, so there's time for the highly-athletic safety to develop into an IDP force as he heads into his age-22 season. Like his brother Tremaine, Terrell is ridiculously young for his experience level, so there's reason to assume the potential for substantial growth in the future. To this point, though, Edmunds' IDP utility has been mediocre at best. He has one sack and one interception on 2,019 defensive snaps, and this lack of playmaking isn't offset especially well in the tackle column. Edmunds' tackle rate through two seasons projects to only about 91 tackles per 1,000 snaps. At 6-1, 217 with a 4.47 40, 41.5-inch vertical and 134-inch broad jump, he has rare athletic tools to work with, so if his instincts start to catch on he could turn into a star in a hurry.

ANALYSISEdmunds finishes the 2019 season second on the team with 104 tackles in 16 games. Despite the high volume of tackles, Edmunds had no sacks or turnovers in his sophomore season after recording one of each in 2018. He is signed until 2023.

This section compares his draft workout metrics with players at the same position. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that metric and it would be considered average.

Sam Darnold should be on his way to Cleveland soon enough, but what happens from the second pick onward could be a whirlwind.

2019

2018

Edmunds lived up to the pressure of being drafted 28th overall and will look to avoid a sophomore slump in 2019 following an impressive rookie season. He returns as the starting strong safety with little competition to challenge him for playing time, but he'll need to add to his sack and turnover totals to have IDP value.

Drafted with the 28th overall pick, Edmunds adds depth in the secondary and seems to have a nose for the ball, totaling six interceptions and 20 passes defended in his three years at Virginia Tech. His size and speed suggest he is capable of great things, but it is unclear how much playing time he will see in his first season with Pittsburgh.
